    En baskisk forfatter rejser i august 2007 med sin kone og to døtre til Nevada for at tilbringe et år i Reno. I en række tekster i dagbogsform blandet med fragmenter om baskiske udvandrere, forfatterens barndomsminder og aktuelle begivenheder beskrives livet på campus, i byen, ørkenen og det vestlige USA ud fra forfatterens perspektiv i et forsøg på at blotlægge forbindelsen mellem to så forskellige geografier og kulturer som Baskerlandet og ”the American West”. Der er klapperslanger og giftige edderkopper, der afholdes vælgermøder med Obama og Clinton, bisættelse af en amerikansk soldat dræbt i Irak og Thanksgivingmiddag. Og vi lytter med, når forfatteren ringer til sin mor derhjemme. Dage i Nevada er en fortælling bestående af mange fortællinger, der væver det tørre landskab i Nevadas ørken og de funklende lys fra Renos kasinoer sammen med et mere intimt og personligt landskab i Baskerlandet. Oplevelser blandes med minder, fortidige og nutidige hændelser og drømme, og der knyttes venskaber på tværs af kontinenterne.

I love side-by-side stories since it is so fascinating when they finally coincide in a dynamic conclusion." Amazon Reviewer, 5 stars"What a great fast-paced story which has the reader looking forward to the next line, paragraph and page as it's an outstanding page turner!" Amazon Reviewer, 5 stars"Great new heir hunter! Flint is back!!! Heir hunter extraordinaire, Michael Flint, is back with his newest case!" Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars"I was enthralled with this book because of the genealogist theme. I dabble in genealogy, and have hit my fair share of brick walls. Michael Flint is a great character, fully developed personality, with knowledge and fearlessness to pursue wrong-doing and try to make it right, not necessarily within the law. I couldn't put down either of the books in this series and am hopeful for more." Amazon Reviewer, 5 stars"I started reading Ms Capri's Jack Reacher spin-offs. I've read them all. Moving on to her other works. Great reads. Can't wait for the next in the Michael Flint series." Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars"I like the fast pace and not having to wade through a description of the mosaic tile walls in the lobby of some building. A tenacious character with a set of values and a conscience. A very good read. Couldn't put it down!" Amazon Reviewer, 5 stars"Tense and captivating page turner. I really enjoyed the Heir Hunter series and am hoping for more real soon. Michael Flint is a true adventure hero every bit as good as Indiana Jones with a dose of Jack Reacher thrown in for good measure. He's highly principled, while somewhat flawed, but very loyal with a vulnerable side he'd rather keep hidden. Please Diane Capri......more, more, more!" Amazon Reviewer, 5 stars"This second book was every bit as riveting as I'd hoped for. It kept me on the edge of my seat, and I could hardly put it down. I can't wait for the third book in this series!!" Amazon Reviewer, 5 starsAward winning New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author DIANE CAPRI Does It Again in the Michael Flint, Heir Hunter Thrillers

    This is a book for anyone, of any age, who cares about rivers.This story of the Columbia River is unique. Told from the river¿s perspective, it is an immersive, empathetic portrait of a once-wild river and of the Sinixt, a First People who lived on the mainstem of this great western river for thousands of years and continue to do so even though Canada declared them ¿extinct¿ in 1956.The book¿s re-release comes at a critical time for natural systems and for reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples across North America. The Colville Confederated Tribes, representing over 3,000 Sinixt People, recently won a precedent-setting case in the Supreme Court of Canada affirming that Aboriginal Rights do not stop at the border. The important story of the Sinixt weaves together with the ongoing ecological impact of hydropower development on the Columbia and its tributaries.Central to the story is the joyous spirit of salmon, once a free swimmer in the Columbiäs currents north of the border but now blocked from ancestral spawning grounds by Grand Coulee and other dams. Restoring migratory fish indigenous to the Upper Columbia will require transboundary cooperation. With Indigenous Nations on both sides of the US¿Canada border now leading the way, many are hopeful that the fish will return.Lavishly illustrated by Nelson, BC, designer Nichola Lytle, this portrait of a globally significant river will inspire anyone who reads it to care about the future of the salmon, a fish that unites all of us in its quest for freedom and possibility.

    FIRE MÆND FIRE DAGE EN KAMP PÅ LIV OG DØD Det var bare en spadseretur gennem ørkenen til et sted 100.000 år tilbage i fortiden. Egentlig mente de at vide, hvad de kunne forvente. Men de tog fejl. Nu sidder en gruppe videnskabsmænd fast i en verden, de ikke var forberedt på, og som de aldrig kan vende tilbage fra. Deres eneste håb er en kvartet af forhenværende US Army Rangers, der er friske på at rejse tilbage til Nevada i forhistorisk tid for at stå ansigt til ansigt med ukendte rædsler og mod umulige odds bringe dem hjem fra Dårlige tider. Uddrag af bogen “Vi kan åbne feltet i tredive minutter hver otteogfyrretyvende time. Vi har gjort det tre gange, siden de gik igennem, og ingen er kommet tilbage igennem Røret. Noget må være gået galt på den anden side.” “Hvad er der på den anden side, doktor?” “Nevada som det var for hundrede årtusinder siden. Hvor vi er nu ville være på kysten af et lavt hav næsten sekstenhundrede kilometer bredt. Den geologiske optegnelse for denne periode giver os en rimelig mængde sikkerhed om det. På dette eksakte sted. Ser du, selvom Røret muliggør det at rejse gennem tid, så kan det ikke –” “– tage dig gennem sted,” sagde Dwayne. “Jeg så filmen, doktor. Og du vil have mig til at gå gennem Røret og redde din søster.” “Og Dr. Kemp og Phillip.” “Redde dem fra hvad, doktor?” “Altså, tidsperioden myldrer med farlige livsformer. Som gigantiske versioner af dyr vi kender i dag. Kæmpebjørn. Kæmpebæver. Kæmpeelg. Endda elefanter i den periode. Der kunne også være voldsomme storme og oversvømmelser. Det er umuligt at vide, hvad forholdene er på den anden side, uden at gå igennem Røret.Om forfatteren Chuck Dixon (f. 1954) er tegneserieforfatter, der er mest kendt for sit arbejde med superhelte hos forlagene Marvel og DC, hvor han står bag karakterer som The Punisher, Batman, Nightwing og Robin i 1990’erne og de tidlige nuller. Han er tillige New York Times-bestsellerforfatter. Kannibalguld er første bind i hans science fiction-serie Dårlige tider.
